Ocean Restaurant

“We’re passionate about working with an extremely talented and dedicated team, in such an amazing, elegant, and beautiful location with the Atlantic Ocean as a backdrop. We are fortunate to work with the freshest local produce and the amazing fish and seafood that comes from the ocean right at our doorstep.”

Monkfish with lentils; topinambur and lardo; piri-piri chicken; and langoustine with carrots, calamansi, and coconut.

As the name suggests, the ‘big blue’ is the main protagonist of this restaurant. Chef Hans Neuner has spent the past ten years discovering Portuguese cuisine and nurturing a special relationship with a careful selection of Algarve’s fishermen and farmers. Hans only uses fish which has been caught by single lines on small wooden boats. Sardines have been banned from the menu for two years because of their endangered status. He has his own herb garden by the cliffs where the restaurant is located, and the menu changes every two weeks to keep up with available produce. Neuner recently admitted that “It’s an everyday adventure to work here, because, and even after ten years of being in Portugal, I am still discovering Portuguese cuisine“.

“Ocean is a truly exceptional restaurant in the Algarve region in Portugal. The breathtaking surroundings, combined with Executive Chef Hans Neuner’s refined, creative dishes and the splendid wine selection, offer an elegant and memorable dining experience. A restaurant to cherish.” WBP Stars
